Hadoop 0.20, introduced new MR API, there is not much functionality difference between the new (o.a.h.mapreduce package) and old MR API (o.a.h.mapred) except that data can be pulled within the mappers and the reducers using the new API. What Arnon is mentioned is with the old API.
Check this article for passing the parameters using the new and old API.
